Group 19
Purpose of our analysis is to understand patterns and correlations of early predictors of (Comorbidities and Etiologies) of cirrhosis’ patients mortality.
Cirrhosis is a condition in which the liver is scarred and permanently damaged. A liver that’s affected by cirrhosis is unable to function properly, which causes serious health problems.
<>
Study performed on X patients from 4 safety-net hospitals in the US
Focused in the early predictors of outcomes like comorbidities and etiologies
Cleaning:
Started by extracting necessary columns
Adding an ID column as a unique identifier for each observation
Renamed columns, reordered them, and assigned classes to etiology and comorbidities.
tidying:
Augmenting:
Created categories for Mortality: no death, death in hospital, after 30 days, after 90 days.
Creating age bins instead decade
Etiology is the study of the factors that come together leading to a disease.
Comorbidity is an additional disease that can interact and coexist simultaneously with cirrhosis.
